TA-SBA SET OF 4 SHEAR BLADES
Including Warner Bratzler test jig complete with slotted base. The blade set
includes four shear blades, firmly held within a specially designed blade holder.
The jig is utilized in the measurement of shearing and cutting forces, as the
blades pass through a sample. Requires Fixture Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
TA-SFF SPAGHETTI FLEXURE FIXTURE
This fixture is used to quantify flexure characteristics of uncooked spaghetti and
other dry pastas.
TA-SFJ SLIDING FRICTION JIG
This fixture measures the coefficient of friction for packaging materials according
to ASTM D1894. Requires Fixture Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
TA-STF SPREAD TEST FIXTURE
This fixture quantifies the force to spread a material on a surface. Requires
Fixture Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
TA-STJ SYRINGE TESTING JIG
This fixture is used for measuring the force required to push or pull a syringe
plunger. Important to pre-filled syringe market or manufacturers of custom
syringe products. Fixture designed to hold syringe barrel while pushing or
pulling syringe plunger. A clamping mechanism to hold syringe barrel adjusts
to accommodate barrel up to 40mm in diameter. Requires Fixture Base Table
TA-BT-KIT.

Requires Fixture Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
TA-TPB THREE POINT BEND TEST FIXTURE
Three point bend test fixture is used for fracture tests of brittle materials. Sample
supports can be adjusted to provide spacing from 10mm-70mm. Sample supports
and identical test blade are 80mm in length with a 1.5mm radius rounded edge.
Requires Fixture Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
TA-TRF TORTILLA ROLL FIXTURE
This fixture is used to evaluate changes in corn tortilla texture per AACC
technical paper by measuring the force to roll up a tortilla. Requires Fixture
Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
TA-TSF TAPE STICKINESS FIXTURE
This fixture measures the adhesive force to pull tape off of a surface. Multiple
tape samples can be tested simultaneously for average values. Requires Fixture
Base Table TA-BT-KIT.
